Here is the flower and bud i also did. You can't see that the green part of the bud was supposed to have little "points going up the pink section. I didn't do that part of it to well. will have to try again.

I can't do the sepals on the base of the bud in detached buttonhole (like the rest of the base) either.
I use chain stitch for them, with stem stitches on the end to give a pointy-end look
PS Your buttonhole is looking great! Nice and tight!
